Testing for allergies can often be
confusing for there are different methods of testing. Most medical doctors or allergists use blood
or scratch testing to evaluate allergies.
Normally, those tests are looking for IgE antibodies, which are the antibodies associated with the
histamine type of reactions found in hives, rashes, itching, breathing
difficulty, and anaphylactic shock. IgE
antibodies comprise approximately 10% of the antibodies coursing through the
body. Levels of IgE allergies normally
range from +1 to +6. Anaphylactic
allergies are usually considered +4, +5, or +6.

Another group of blood factors that
are responsible for allergic reactions are IgG
antibodies. This group is often overlooked
and trivialized, yet ironically they comprise 75-90% of all antibodies
circulating in the blood stream. IgG
antibodies account for delayed reactions, intolerances, or sensitivities that
can result in various symptoms such as fatigue, behaviors, anxiety, depression,
stomach upset, diarrhea, constipation, pain, gas & bloating, loss of
concentration or focus, brainfog, or headaches to name a few. Levels of IgG allergies normally range from
+1 to +3. These allergies are not
considered dangerous or life-threatening as IgE allergies are. However, the symptoms can have a very strong
negative impact on everyday functions.

It is important to know that even
blood or skin testing for allergies can be erroneous and miss certain allergies
that a person may be reacting to.
However, they are helpful in monitoring those allergens that do test
positive.

The amount of NAET treatments
required to eliminate an allergen from the body is dependent upon the level of
the allergen. For example, a +1 IgE
allergy would necessitate approximately 60 treatments, whereas a +6 IgE would
demand possibly over 600. However, after
a full course of appropriate treatments, the level will descend to 0, as would
be revealed in follow up testing. Most
times, combination treatments would also be required. A combination treatment is combining the
factors that are linked to and perpetuating an allergy and treating them
together in combination. Follow up allergy testing would reveal if the body has
fully overcome an allergen. However, it
is important to note that blood levels of an allergen can actually rise before
they descend as the body is clearing itself of that allergen. Therefore, follow up testing would reveal if
an allergy still requires additional treatments or if the allergy has fully
cleared.

All in all, NAET is able to treat
all the different types of allergies whether they are IgE or IgG, mild or
severe. This holistic healing technique
is reprogramming the way the nervous and immune system react to an allergen,
and allowing the patient to be exposed without further harm or reaction. Thousands of patients treated with NAET can
testify that after being treated, they are free from the allergens that
previously plagued them. They can eat
foods that caused prior reactions or can be exposed to environmental agents
such as pollen or grass without any symptoms.
NAET certainly gives freedom from allergies in a safe, effective, and
holistic way.
